super-g

Well after the euphoria of Day Seven, Day Eight was a bit of a reality check after a variety of disappointments and underwhelming performances.  Day Nine though is shaping up nicely despite the being down 2-0 to Finland after 1 period.

A few notes: 

Men's Hockey loses to Suisse

For a loss, oddly this one didn't hurt all that much. Switzerland played their guts out and scored another huge victory.  I won't go on cause i blogged live during the game, but the short version is, ... Way to go Switzerland for stepping it up and (with your 2 huge wins) welcome to the big leagues.  

Men losing to Finland 

Underway now in the second which must be better than the first in which Canada stood around and watched Finland put on a clinic in team play, skill and hustle.  I am bit peeved right now so will hold my tongue in anticipation of a spirited comeback.
